My awesome, Grandchildren, and Annika, Kaleigh, Kate, Gavin; whom I love and pray for every day: “God spoke further to Moses and said to him, “I am Jehovah; and I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as God Almighty, but BY MY NAME, JEHOVAH, I DID NOT MAKE MYSELF KNOWN TO THEM… “Say, therefore, to the sons of Israel, ‘I AM JEHOVAH, AND I WILL BRING YOU OUT FROM UNDER THE BURDENS OF THE EGYPTIANS, and I WILL DELIVER YOU FROM THEIR BONDAGE.” (Exodus 6:2-3) For the first time God reveals himself, YHWH (no vowels) is the creation Name of God. (Gen. 2:4), Later vowels were added and God’s name became Yahweh which means self-Existent, eternal. The name Jehovah is also used. How important is God’s name? Jesus said, “This is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, HALLOWED (to be holy, or sanctified) BE YOUR NAME…” (Matthew 6:9) “Father, GLORIFY YOUR NAME!” Then a voice came from heaven, “I HAVE GLORIFIED IT, AND WILL GLORIFY IT AGAIN.” (John 12:28) We need to reverence and honor the name of the Lord!
“I will also redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments… So Moses spoke thus to the sons of Israel, but THEY DID NOT LISTEN TO MOSES ON ACCOUNT OF THEIR DESPONDENCY AND CRUEL BONDAGE.” (Exodus 6:6, 9) Discouragement can be very costly. Its sense of defeat and hopelessness saps us of energy and vision. It can keep us from doing what we need to do because we don’t want to face it. “The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me (Jesus)…to comfort all who mourn, TO BESTOW THE OIL OF JOY INSTEAD OF MOURNING, AND A GARMENT OF PRAISE INSTEAD OF A SPIRIT OF DESPAIR.” (Isa. 61:1-3)
THE LORD IS VERY FAITHFUL TO ALWAYS HELP US IN TIME OF NEED…
Notice: […We must understand that the bible says:] “…I AM JEHOVAH, AND I WILL BRING YOU OUT FROM UNDER YOUR BURDENS.” !!!] That’s for you: Stephanie, Ethan, Camden, Olivia, Aidan, Landon, Kinsley, Annika, Kaleigh, Kate, Gavin…
